14 Woods and Boards There are two main types of wood - hardwoods and softwoods. Hard woods Hard woods come from broad leaved trees. These trees have flowers and produce seeds such as nuts and fruit). Examples are oak, beech and mahogany. Hardwoods are denser than softwoods and are stronger and more durable too. They are used for furniture making. Beech is often used for making toys. Hardwoods are much more expensive than softwoods. Soft woods Soft woods come from cone bearing trees. Examples are pine, redwood and fir. Softwoods can be used for furniture and doors but are mostly used in construction for roof trusses and stud partitions. Manufactured boards Manufactured boards are processed timber. They have new and useful properties. MDF ( medium density fibreboard ) is now widely used. Plywood made up from alternating layers of thin sheets of wood is strong in all directions. Chipboard made from softwood chips and sawdust is cheap but only attractive when coated with melamine used for kitchen cupboards ( c arcases ). Not all hardwoods are actually hard and not all softwoods are soft.

27 Thermo setting plastics Revision & Course Booklet, KS3 & KS4 Once 'set' these plastics cannot be reheated to soften, shape and mould. The molecules of these plastics are cross linked in three dimensions and this is why they cannot be reshaped or recycled. The bond between the molecules is very strong. Many adhesives (glues) are thermosetting plastics. A good example is Araldite which is an epoxy resin that hardens when a second chemical is added (a catalyst). It will bond most materials including woods and metals as well as some plastics. Many adhesives (glues) are thermosetting plastics. Thermo plastics These plastics can be re-heated and therefore shaped in various ways. They become mouldable after reheating as they do not undergo significant chemical change. Reheating and shaping can be repeated. The bond between the molecules is weak and become weaker when reheated, allowing reshaping. Thermoplastics tend to be composed of 'long chain monomers'. These types of plastics can be recycled. Polyurethane This forms the basis of many paints and varnishes because it is very tough and has water resistant qualities. Melamine Formaldehyde Used in the production of plastic laminates because of its smooth surface and hygienic qualities. It is also used in electrical plugs and sockets because it can be cast and it is an excellent insulator. Urea Formaldehyde (UF) Urea Formaldehyde has physical properties of high hardness and high toughness, making it suitable for strong, knockresistant electrical fittings. It is also scratch resistant and a very good electrical insulator, making electrical fittings manufactured from this polymer safe to use. Polyester resins If resins are combined with a material such as fibre glass the result is a very tough material that can resist impact. This type of material is known as a glass reinforced plastic (GRP) and is used in car body repairs, sailing boats, corrugated sheet because of its lightness, toughness and resistance to water.
